Max Blumenthal and Ben Norton interview Gareth Porter, an award-winning investigative journalist who has done extensive reporting on the US proxy war in Syria, and how the CIA program arming and training rebels strengthened al-Qaeda, ISIS, and other extremist Salafi groups.
We also discuss the historical parallels to the US wars in Afghanistan and Vietnam, and what could come in the future after the Syrian war winds down.
